The Science Standards for the state of Minnesota for grades K-12
are coming up for review by the Minnesota State Legislature. The
current Science Standards support evolution and exclude
creationism, and we want to keep it that way. (Minnesota Governor
Tim Pawlenty has expressed support for "intelligent design.") Lynn
Fellman talks with science educators Scott Lanyon, Randy Moore, and
Sehoya Cotner about effective public outreach, innovative ways to
engage students in science, and new research on the impact of
including creationism in high school biology classes.
